Description
Excavation work is one of the highest-risk activities in construction. Hazards such as trench collapses, falling materials, underground utility strikes, hazardous atmospheres, and water accumulation can occur without warning. Proper planning, risk assessment, and protective measures are essential to ensure a safe work environment.
✅ Conduct a risk assessment before excavation begins.
✅ Use protective systems such as shoring, sloping, or trench boxes.
✅ Locate and mark underground utilities before digging.
✅ Provide safe access and egress using ladders or ramps.
✅ Keep spoil piles and heavy equipment away from the excavation edge.
✅ Inspect excavations daily and after rain or ground movement.
✅ Never enter an unprotected trench or excavation.
Plan the Work. Protect the Trench. Keep Every Worker Safe.
